I’m not saying coach McDermott is the best coach I’ve ever seen or the best in the NFL right now But I do think he’s squarely in the top 8-9 And he has some really positive traits that outweigh his current faults

A decent amount of cornerbacks give up 150 yards during the course of the season… They have a bad day at the office… Especially when you’re a back up role player Justin rodgers was forced to play outside corner vs the jets in 2013… Where he single-handedly gave up over 200 yards… I will never forget that That’s being a mismatch on the field… Wallace wasn’t that bad of a player Wallace rarely even got beat over the top in his time here … He gave up some yards in between the 20s But wasn’t that much of a liability… Even as an undrafted free agent rookie he wasn’t getting torched like that He’s an NFL level corner who is scheme specific who is replaceable simple as that… that’s not a bum tho Nathan peterman …. Terrible , sure

Wallace did not suck his entire time here All we did was try to replace him with veterans and young players and he continuously beat them out Nobody is saying he’s a top 15 corner in the league… But he absolutely was in the top 45 And that’s pure development from the practice squad on op and McDermitt knowing how to teach defensive backs Sure every team places out replacement level guys… and they usually are instantly exposed levi Wallace Never got torched for 200 yards and 3 touchdowns in a game… Not even a buck 50 Dane Jackson is extremely limited and While he has given up plays has never been exposed He doesn’t put a person out there that looks lost when they have time to prepare… You can’t say that about the rest of the league and I understand your point about getting the most out of your best when you need it… I do and the bills need that

Like Sean said in his presser in Carolina … I want to do the dictating … which is great … but sometimes the other team can use your own tendencies against you situationally just knowing when to go and when to hold up is the chess piece … I think McDermott wants to be aggressive… but finding balance is key and I think he will find that balance

That doesn’t mean every single players a superstar Coach McDermott has gotten a lot out of a little plenty … 1-52 he develops as good as anyone He coaches and develops 5th round milano into an All pro… He coaches and develops sixth round Christian benford into starting as a rookie coached up udfa Levi Wallace into a starter … 6th round Dane Jackson… we literally had nobody Justin zimmer playing meaningful snaps and making some plays.. McDermott can coach McDermott absolutely maximizes his coaching ability from player one through 52 but really coaches up the back end as good as anyone

Everybody on this board needs to listen to Sean here vintage McDermott, scrawny voice and all… the only thing he didn’t do is clap he is a very smart defensive coach and I always loved that he WANTS TO DICTATE… no vice versa you force your opponent into doing what you want … not play into his hand

I’m sure he learned a lot from Ron also… a phenomenal coach We’re probably not gonna see something too drastic of a difference… But it’s gonna be the small nuances… In Tendency and maybe some leverage fits in the secondary also We’ve been the best in the NFL over the last five years in not giving up the deep ball… But teams have adjusted underneath sean might bring back more of a Underneath shadow coverage… As in let his cornerbacks play underneath the routes And Make plays Instead of always being above the coverage and reacting More big plays might be given up over the course of the season but it’s a much stickier coverage when things get physical in the playoffs

Mcnabb was a stud and absolutely SB quality Reid didn’t get it done till he had an unquestioned HoF.. Without Pat he’s still sitting without a SB Josh will get it done with McD

I’ve had some time in the last couple weeks… To review Sean McDermott the defensive coordinator Since he will be the guy most responsible for our success this season,.. As the head man and defensive shot caller I’ve seen a lot of snaps from McDermott from Philadelphia through Carolina and even watching how the defense has morphed in Buffalo I would not call him a schematic guru… but he learned from Jim Johnson … one of the best schematic blitzers Many of Seans principles that he learned from Johnson have become Staples in the game… Such as loading up the box in a duel a gap pressure… Vintage Johnson McDermott.. or feigning pressure Sean does rely on the talent of his front four… But as 4 doesn’t get home for a quarter and a half… He’s willing to bring five… And if five doesnt hit… 6 He will not let you sit back for 60 minutes and pick you apart while being comfortable… He hides combination coverages… And prefers press man on third downs… He also gets the most out of every player he has over 15 years nothing he does is super exotic.., but it serves a purpose… he will give you a look 4 times… and pull out and go coverage 4 straight … but the 5th… he brings 6 and you can’t block it his situational awareness stands out defensively… being complacent is a death sentence … he hides everything as good as anybody and don’t be surprised to see a lot more safety blitzes sprinkled in im 💯 confident with Sean and I’m excited to see our new look defense with new faces

How did you remember he played with Sony in HS lol

He’s more deshaun Jackson I think it’s a great addition …. he has to stay healthy tho

Holy ***** !! We found you @Einstein

I think he’s in med time …

This place is like one flew over the cuckoos nest

I don’t think anybody cares what school he went to…. The day you get into the NFL… Whether as a first round pick or undrafted free agent… You’re in the league 30% of the league is undrafted free agents… All you need is a shot fred Jackson DIII coe college

Why would he go from the long wind up? it was so slow he was 1/2 there and running full speed by the release time lol gotta go stretch

Delete some hard drive

All the mensa geniuses bragging about their IQ don’t even realize iq can change with mental health Since it is measuring Your mental age in conjunction with your actual age According to mensa… a 10-year-old, With a mental age of 10… Would have a score of 100 I’m pretty sure some brains sharpen and some fall apart… Your brain is not the same at 15 as it is a 25 and 45 and 65… But I’m sure All you Mensa geniuses knew that brains are constantly changing based on how hard we work it or hurt it … environmental factors , health … You can increase your IQ … you can also lose some

I know that Allen sent out like 500 emails to all D1 coaches and only Wyoming and eastern Michigan hit him back Brent Vigan (OC) then went down to reedley and watched highlights of josh then bohl made a trip up to the farm and offered Allen a scholarship… eastern Michigan pulled out as soon as Josh took a trip to Wyoming

That’s also a kicker Having another big time recruit so scouts can see you when they come to see him

Again there are a lot of 5’8-5’9 football players … I just said most D1 schools won’t offer a guy that size unless he is special… If 100 5’8 players go to UBs elite camp … maybe 2 would leave with an offer its just a lot tougher to make it to DI or the league … You can be at a camp in Texas… and I’ve seen This… Where you can just be walking around in shorts and be a 6’4 225 pound JR edge rusher And coaches will just walk up to you and give you a scholarship… on the spot … because of your look … They don’t even need to see you in a drill… you got an invite to the elite camp and have the look they crave while the 5’9 guy is going to have to bust his ass and kill all the drills… and beat the competition sideways to get that look… mckenzie did star at a 5AAAAA Florida school which is why he’s one of the rarer little guys to go to a big school and play Most are like Beasley or crowder and have offers to SMU or Duke or wake forest or Kansas or service academies…2* recruits… which is still amazing but most big time schools would rather have and develop a 6’0 200 lb kid who can run … instead of a 5’7 kid who’s 160 and there’s a lot of HS kids to chose from , so even the Small kids who are phenoms , have up hill battles

Assumption would be DII and that’s why I also added or NFL caveat 95% of DI schools will not offer a kid that size unless he is destroying kids in 5AAAAA Florida or Texas even MAC schools are weary of that size with a scholarship out of HS… Jarrett Patterson at UB was 5’7 165 lb and they only offered him because they wanted his brother ( now a bill) and they were a tandem deal good decision usually at that size you can get a preferred walk on if your a beast with the chance for a scholarship

I think that’s doesn’t even matter at this point in his career sure there aren’t a lot of 5’8 170 pounders in the NFL but that’s also because there aren’t a lot of world class football athletes that size If you can play D1 or get to the league at that size , you’re 100% pound for pound a machine

I want McDermott played by Danny Devito and Diggs played by miles brown

Braces are good
